Interesting People who don't bore me. I have ecclectic tastes and I like people who amuse me and make me smile.
As far as Music, I like anything to which I can move! It changes from day to day. 80's goth and New Wave. 90's grunge. 60's beach tunes. The Moody Blues. David Bowie. Movie Sountracks. Indian Bollywood music. I love Zee TV. German Industrial. Local bands like The Killers and Heavy Honey. Techno/Trance/Dance/House music. Paul Oakenfold. J pop. Crowded House. The inspired compositions of Eric Galligan. Irish and English Drinking Songs. Old School Punk (Bad Religion and Less Than Jake). Gallacian Pipes a la Carlos Nunez. Arabic Bellydances remastered. Some Opera (Aida) and some classical (mostly Russian and Austrian). I am ALWAYS looking for something new. Show me the way.
6 favorte movies in no particular order. Labyrinth, Bound, Boondock Saints, The Big Easy, The Opposite Sex, Diabolique. I can watch these movies over and over. I know, as ecclectic as the music. Should I add a 7th and say The Princess Bride. I think Yes. Same with Office Space. I REALLY do have 8 bosses.
I watch A LOT of anime. I got hooked on Voltron and Robotech at about 9 years old. Now I watch Adult Swim, Miguzi, Toonami, AZN, Anime Network, Fridays nights on TCM. Anywhere I can find it. English or Japanese. An imcomplete list: Gundam Wing, Inuyasha, Fullmetal Alchemist, Record of Lodoss War, Descendents of Darkness, Big O, Trigun, Ghost in the Shell (all incarnations), Cardcaptors, Sailor Moon, Ninja Scroll, His/Her Circumstances, Oh my Goddess, Macross, Princess Mononoke, Witch Hunter Robin, Naruto, Saiyuki, Wolf's Rain, and anything by Miyazaki. I could go on... Sometimes I even watch regular TV. I like Boston Legal, the Food Network, and anything where houses are being torn down and rebuilt.
I have read a lot of classical stuff, both in tranlation and in the original. I've read more Caesar and Cicero than I care to. But I like Juvenal, Sappho, and Aristophanes. Funny. Anne Rice. Love Vampires to death. The more modern stuff I like is a lot of new sci fi. China Mieville, David Brin, Robert Sawyer, Kim Stanley Robinson. I like some classics like Jane Austen and F. Scott Fitzgerald. I LOVE reading Lord Byron. I've loved Amy Tan since high school. Of course Watership Down makes this list! I'm a HUGE Sherlock Holmes fan from my pre-teen days. And of course The Wind in the Willows.
My Husband. He's the smartest man I know. He knows how to take care of problems. He makes me laugh until my sides hurt.
